I dream of a love I’ve never had

I dream of a love I’ve never had
Of wedding bells ringing
Joyful tears streaking down our faces
We serve cake to our guests
Look lovingly into each other’s eyes
I dream of a full life with you
We lay side by side
Full of joy and laughter
You lean on me
I lean on you
You joke and laugh
I tell you it’s time for bed
We must be up early
I wake to find you are not there
You are not laying next to me
You are not in my bed
You are not here
I look to see my bed empty except for me
I dreamt of a love that never was
A love that will never be
